Monet asked Bethany C. Morrow:

I just finished "A Song Below Water" and your use of mythology is so stunning! I feel silly because I don't entirely understand what elokos are? Did you adapt them from mythology, or are they by your own design? Thank you!

Maybe I'll find out more as I read, but I was curious why you set this in the past (1900's) rather than the present/future?

Tomb asked Bethany C. Morrow:

Just finished A Chorus Rises. What a fantastic book! Am I right to guess that we will be hearing more about the long gone oracles in a potential third book? :)
